I'm still in two minds about all the "vegan version of xyz" stuff that's going on at the moment. What got me scratching my chin was something (I think) Oliver posted upthread about Pat Val not putting butter in their puff pastry to save money. I was also confused when reading the back of supermarket puff pastry, that most of it also appeared to contain no butter.
What I mean is, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Greggs' vegan sausage rolls were cheaper to make than their meaty ones. That's not necessarily a reason not to eat them, of course, just that the moves from KFC/Subway/Greggs etc. to launch vegan products could be a nice little margin enhancer for them to subsidise lower prices in the rest of their business.
Food for thought.
